Respecting the value of every life
Respecting the value of every life
Peace Hospice Care depends on many local businesses and companies
for support. By working together we do something amazing and make
life better for those affected by serious illness.
Alongside their everyday business needs, our corporate partners want
to make a difference in the communities around them, and want to
ensure their employees feel valued and engaged.
Whether your workplace employs 1 person or 100, there are so many
ways to get involved.
We will work with you, showing you the value and impact of your
support, making fundraising fun for your staff, and making a real and
lasting difference to those who need us most.
“Watford Football Club sees
itself as not just a supporter but a
partner for furthering the name of
Peace Hospice Care in the local community.”
Richard Walker, Head of Communications
Watford Football Club
How we can work together
We work with companies of all sizes to come up with unique and tailored partnerships, many of which
incorporate a number of different elements:
Be a proud sponsor. We have some amazing events from our prestigious House of Lords champagne dinner
to our annual, muddy obstacle run ‘Push it for the Peace’.
Enter a team. Get your staff involved in a range of challenges, from fun runs to skydives! And if you run a
matched giving scheme, you will really spur your employees on.
Give a donation or a gift in kind. We value every donation as well as any gifts in kind, many of which are
showcased as prizes in our raffles and auctions.
Hold an event of your own. From dress down days to putting on a pub quiz, getting behind your own
event can be one of the most rewarding things to do as well as one of the most fun.
Set up payroll giving. It’s an easy and tax efficient way to make a big difference.
Volunteering. Every hour of your time makes such a difference.
Make us your charity of the year.
“Peace Hospice Care is a great cause and
one we are very proud to support.”
